what are these pads made of (can't tell from the picture) and how do you use them?are these pads used with a solvent or just by themselves?

The pads are made of a rough plastic-like (but not plastic) substance. I used them alone. I do not think they need any other solvent. I just put them in the toilet and started scrubbing. As I said in the review they worked great but did not last for more than one use (I did have a major water ring to work on).

They work with just plain water. For a tough bathtub scale, I used some Lime-a-way. It worked great.

One side is a thin sponge and the other a fine grid of pumice like material. I just got it wet and scrubbed the toilet by hand. it worked great without additional cleaners. It took off a ring that a pumice stone did not. It removes stains and deposits. It your toilet is etched, it won't help.

The pads are made of some kind of screened grit bonded to sponge material so you can scrub things with it. No solvent necessary just elbow grease required. I used it first on my coffee mug and then did my toilet using rubber gloves. Works great! Got all the mineral deposits and scale buildup off that liquid cleaners wont touch. After that most of the grit was gone so you just toss it. They come in a two pack.

It looks like a window screen on a thin sponge. You can you can use it with a solvent or alone and it does wonder.

They have a thin sponge back with a plastic mesh on the other side. They are thin, but work great for removing toilet rings or other similar gunk. I was surprised when I got them, they are small, but after using the pad, I have re-ordered the item and recommended these pads to others.

I'm not sure what they are made of... they almost have a feeling of sandpaper, but the black, scrubbing part has tiny holes, and the scrubbing material is on all sides (not just the top). You don't need to use anything with them -- just a little elbow grease. I must say I was amazed by these. I have tried everything on my toilet rings, and had pretty much given up on the possibility of every getting them completely gone. These however, did the trick. You just rub back in forth, and everything comes clean.

Hi. One side is a mild sponge, the other side is grid shaped, flat tho. I can't tell if it is a harder plastic or some light metal. Either way, it is not a 'bad' product for the price. But, I think the heavy duty 3M scrubbers would work as well, if not better. The heavier duty ones I have seen in Home Improvement stores. The heaviest ones are brown (the ones in regular stores are green)

Brian, I've tried soaking the pads in warm soapy water to loosen some of the dirt before I wash them in cold water. I think the pads say "do not use bleach". I finally got so frustrated that I ordered new pads because they seem to be impossible to clean after a couple of uses. If you hear from anyone else, I'd be interested in their results.Thanks,Stephanie Kentala

Yes, very well too. They are the best pads I have found. Cheap ones don't compare!

I relied upon the product details for the size. As for calling them "Scrub pads" -they are made of the 3M material. Hope that helps.

No, these pads work much better wet or at least dampened. Ater use, and when left to dry, they can become hard as a rock!

The pads are in a jar. Not individually wrapped. They come in a count of 38.

HII LOVE those pads. They are made of really quality material,and are NOT flimsy.After use I rinse dirt off, then addn a TSP of bleach to a quart of cold water, and soak themfo 1/2 hour, or so, tehn washhh it together with the white laundry, and hang it up to dry.This pad probably lasts a long time.Linda in MI

I use it in the same way you do and they stay potent between uses. I do pop the whole thing into a plastic bag when not in use just to make sure. Note that under regular use conditions when the pads turn white they need to be changed.

These look like pads. I don't know if I'd have thought to use it like that, but maybe?

Don't believe they are intended to be used with cleaner. I use cloths and alcohol pads.(seperately)

I don't use them. I have seen them. I bought these for my Mom. I would say NO, they are like a huge pad.

its a set of 2 pads in the package, these are very good and comfortable pads, best i have ever had, already with them for 2yrs and they saved me plenty of times.

the pads come without scent, and you use your own scents, oils on them. I use only one scent per pad, and reuse the pads many,, many times,, like refresh in the bathroom or purification in my mini van,, used to transport my boys,,,

I really don't know, but my guess would be some sort of silica gel. I have so far only used the plastic ones, and I apply coconut oil to the surface (if it's not cloth) before using them.

Not exactly sure what your asking totally, but I'll try to give you the best answer I can. The gel is an integral part of the pads, you can't take the gel off. I use these in my chiropractic clinic and I easily get at least 30 uses with each pair. All you need to do is wet each pad with a few drops of water and rub them together before you use them and they will stick for a really long time. I hope that helps!

The pads do contain Isopropyl alcohol. I have used these wipes for years and I never had a problem. You can call a toll free phone number, 800-358-8258. If you have any issues,you can speak to a representative. Good luck.

It is like a cloth that has been coated in a waterproof substance, not a plastic. I have a HE washer and dryer. I have no trouble washing them on the bulkey setting, or drying them. Because the are waterproof some water will remain in a corner of the pad, very small amount. I will buy these again. Work great.
